I was heading down the wrong road
I was heading straight for hell
I mispercieved His will for me
And fell into a well
This well is deep and lasting
It's dark in here you know
This well will devour me
If I should ever let go
But I fight and kick and scream
I lift my hands to Him
I pray that He'll reach down
And bring me up again
My cries echo through the well
And out to those who care
They try to help the best they can
And keep me in their prayers
Now the air is filled
With the nectar of their love
And their cries along with mine
Are heard from up above
My sweet Jesus
Comes to me
And right where I am
He helps me to see
That my need is great
Without Him I'm doomed
I'm just a human
With no power of my own
He gently reaches down this well
And brings me up again
I fall to my knees
I repent of my sins
I pray for forgiveness
I cling to His side
I let go of the things
That put me inside
The well.
